While heralded UNC basketball talent Harrison Ingram remains an early NBA Draft entrant, the junior forward is at least giving himself time to change his mind.
So long as Harrison Ingram doesn't hire a non-NCAA certified agent, the 2023-24 UNC basketball forward has until 11:59 p.m. ET on May 29 to withdraw his name from the NBA Draft and return to college with his eligibility intact. He became an early entrant on Saturday.

Ingram, an All-ACC performer who averaged 12.2 points and 8.8 rebounds this past season but is currently only a projected second round pick in the eyes of many experts, should get a better gauge of his stock during the NBA Draft Combine in Chicago, May 12-19. As UNC basketball continues its transfer pursuits, the Tar Heels appear to have nine talents on tap for next season in RJ Davis, Elliot Cadeau, Seth Trimble, Jae'Lyn Withers, Jalen Washington, Zayden High, James Brown, Ian Jackson, and Drake Powell. That equates to four open scholarships; again, though, there's no absolute guarantee yet that one of those won't go to Ingram.UNC Pads Record, Becomes ACC's First No.
